Jfend72 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 (edited) The book has a slight spine roll. I’ve sent it to be cleaned and pressed. Thank you Edited February 27, 2023 by Jfend72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvelmaniac Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 I see some slight color rub, other than that I do not see any other defects other than the fold. Assuming pressing the book removes the fold I see the book being in the NM 9.4 range, with the fold VF/NM 9.0. timfinz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mars76 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Very glossy 😎. I see one tiny cb tic on the bc spine. 9.6-9.8 with a good cnp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoggyNelson Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Can’t see how this can come back any better than 8.0 I hope am wrong👏👍 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 >9.2 assuming press gets ride of the roll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nschenks Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Yeah easily 9.6 with press I think. Only see the one CB tick on the back. 9.6/9.8...roll the dice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jfend72 Posted February 28, 2023 Author Share Posted February 28, 2023 Yeah I bought two copies from a dealer, same issue of that light spine roll. I’ve sent these off to Avery Pressing services, crossing my fingers that one comes back a 9.8. Only 7% of the newstands hit that mark so it will be a long shot. Funny, I think the light makes it look like there is color rub as I had the book under a high wattage set of bulbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
